Analysis of porcine adipose tissue transcriptome reveals differences in de novo fatty acid synthesis in pigs with divergent muscle fatty acid composition
Corominas, Jordi; Ramayo Caldas, Yuliaxis; Puig Oliveras, Anna; Estellé, Jordi; Castelló, Anna; Alves, Estefania; Pena i Subirà, Ramona Natacha; Ballester, Maria; Folch Albareda, Josep Maria (BioMed Central, 2013)Background: In pigs, adipose tissue is one of the principal organs involved in the regulation of lipid metabolism. It is particularly involved in the overall fatty acid synthesis with consequences in other lipid-target ... -
Comparative transcriptome profile between Iberian pig varieties provides new insights into their distinct fat deposition and fatty acids content
Villaplana-Velasco, Ana; Noguera Jiménez, José Luis; Pena i Subirà, Ramona Natacha; Ballester, Maria; Muñoz Vázquez, Lourdes; González, E.; Tejeda, J.F.; Ibáñez-Escriche, N. (MDPI, 2021-02-27)The high deposition of intramuscular fat and the content of oleic fatty acid are characteristic of the Iberian pig. These two parameters present great variability and are differentiated amongst the varieties that make up ... -
Comparing the mRNA expression profile and the genetic determinism of intramuscular fat traits in the porcine gluteus medius and longissimus dorsi muscles
González-Prendes, Rayner; Quintanilla Aguado, Raquel; Mármol-Sánchez, Emilio; Pena i Subirà, Ramona Natacha; Ballester, Maria; Figueiredo Cardoso, Tainã; Manunza, Arianna; Casellas, Joaquim; Cánovas, Angela; Díaz, Isabel; Noguera Jiménez, José Luis; Castelló, Anna; Mercadé Carceller, Anna; Amills i Eras, Marcel (BMC (part of Springer Nature), 2019-03-04)Background: Intramuscular fat (IMF) content and composition have a strong impact on the nutritional and organoleptic properties of porcine meat. The goal of the current work was to compare the patterns of gene expression ...
